Asterisk 1.8 package
-
Hello,
Just installed Asterisk packages on pfSense 2.0.1. I can't find the GUI for it. Is there a GUI for it? It would be great if the description for each package tells you which menu the newly installed package goes under. If there is no GUI, the community available tool is the status_asterisk.php file?
Thanks,
-
It's on status menu.
If you can't see it, maybe you need to reinstall the package.
-
I see it upon re-install.
Thanks

It would also be nice to have the "module show" command or even better the possibility to type commands (like with the fivn asterisk management "command" menu)
Replying to my self.
To execute all sort of asterisk CLI command, we just have to type it in the browser as a link :
https://MyPfsense_Url/asterisk_cmd.php ==> will execute the default command "core show sttings"
and
https://MyPfsense_Url/asterisk_cmd.php?cmd=module+show ==> Will execute "module show"
and
https://MyPfsense_Url/asterisk_cmd.php?cmd=core+show+help ==> Will execute "core show help" giving the list off available CLI commands…
(not all commands cause it seems to display a limited numbers of characters...) -

I hope this is the right place to ask this question because I just found this thread. I am setting up an Asterisk box with a Digium TDM400P with two FXOs and two FXSs so I can tie in POTS and house phones with VOIP. My original aim was to have a separate pfSense gateway to control access. Now, having seen this thread, I'm wondering if I wouldn't have the same functionality with only one host. I would need to move the TDM400P to the pfSense box (and install DAHDI drivers) and I would probably use a browser for Asterisk configuration anyway. Is all of this currently feasible? Thanks!

I have some packages compiled on my personal repo but take a look on all this thread to get additional info.
I don't think pfsense is the right place for a voip boad. The idea of this package was to be usefull as a sip gateway/firewall.

Anyone has a port of zaptel driver for FreeBSD-8.1? I'd like to use a X100P FXO PCI card on my pfSense box, but it's not even listed in dmesg…

I fully agree, but I'm not sure that Asterisk is the right software to use on a SIP gateway/proxy.
Have a look at:

Works nice :)

That depends on the requirements. In many cases a SIP proxy is just not enough, for example when you need to select between multiple providers based on callee destinations (to select cheapest of them). Or when you need Music on Hold while transferring a call from one handset to another.
-
I was mostly referring to pfsense being a security device (rather than a full blown VoIP pbx, Squid proxy server, NFS/SMB server etc), and so some sort of session-border-controller software (i.e. SIP L7 inspection/filtering) would be the most appropriate to use on pfsense itself …
Otherwise, I'm sure Asterisk or FreeSWITCH can probably both work fine on it.

Since i moved asterisk on my pf-sense box, i have better quality with my calls, i don't know if it's due to move from asterisk 1.6 to 1.8 or move to my pf-sense box. Maybe the few milliseconds gain are sufficient to have better quality? or less nat traffic (udp 5060 no more redirected to another server)?
So i'm very pleased with this solution!
i still have work on the subject : save my logs from time to time because i'm on embedded pf-sense. (Yesterday i was with a uptime of +5 weeks, and a short of electric power make me loose all my calls history…)And now i have gone to read the opentelecoms site : i want to test sip proxy!

Nobody?

Appears to be here:
http://svn.digium.com/svn/dahdi/freebsd/trunk/drivers/dahdi/Unfortunately the project to port DAHDI to FreeBSD was completed in Oct 2010, after the 8.1 release so it is not in the 8.1 ports tree. You could try the version from 8-stable but it's a complex package so the chances of it working seem quite small. Backup everything first because you'll probably cause all sort of problems! ;)
pkg_add -r ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/mirror/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/Latest/dahdi.tbzWhen you say 'not even listed in dmesg' are you saying it doesn't even appear as a 'none' device? (one that has no driver attached)

hi everybody i'm miguelshady new pfsense user's
I have a real problem with asterisk services
I use pfsense 2.0.1 and I installed the asterisk package, statut state asterisk stpopped and I can't start services or find files configuration where located in usr / local / etc, as described in the topic, I also install siproxy and FreeSwitch, I would like to allow a user to call through asterisk server with their sofphones after a captive portal authentication
thank you for helping and sorry for the quality of my english -
Configure on service at once. siproxy, freeswitch and asterisk will try to bind on the same port.
-
Marcelo,
In order to edit a configuration file do we start with the xyz.conf-dist files and write to xyz.conf files?
How do you want or envision configuration to be done? -
Current package helps only on installing and monitoring only, a future release will include asterisk-gui.
Edit/rename config files using console, filer package or scp for example.
att,
Marcello Coutinho -
For those who is following this thread, I've submitted asterisk-gui to freebsd ports. Since it's approved, I can add it to this package.
